Hi, bought a house and the boiler (gravity fed one) needs replacing as is pretty ancient. Was prepared for this, but the heating engineer I had out suggested the whole pipe network in the house should be replaced as well, because (think I heard this right) the hot water and heating are currently on separate loops and modern systems have the whole thing integrated. He suggested modern boilers wouldn't work with my pipe system.
Is this correct? I tried some googling but couldnt find anything on this. Obviously replacing the pipes adds a lot to the cost.
